How to Build 18c RAC - 1 of 4 - Preparing Two Database Servers

For 19c, you may refer to: How to Build 19c RAC - 1 of 4 - Preparing Two Database Servers.

Network Design for RAC

Let's see the network design of our cluster database.

[root@primary01 ~]# vi /etc/hosts
# Public
192.168.10.11 primary01 primary01.example.com
192.168.10.12 primary02 primary02.example.com

# Private
192.168.24.11 primary01-priv primary01-priv.example.com
192.168.24.12 primary02-priv primary02-priv.example.com

# VIP
192.168.10.111 primary01-vip primary01-vip.example.com
192.168.10.112 primary02-vip primary02-vip.example.com

# SCAN
# 192.168.10.81 primary-cluster-scan primary-cluster-scan.example.com
# 192.168.10.82 primary-cluster-scan primary-cluster-scan.example.com
# 192.168.10.83 primary-cluster-scan primary-cluster-scan.example.com

# NAS
192.168.10.101 nas nas.example.com

# DNS
192.168.10.56 dns dns.example.com

The network design has been summarized as below:

  • Two nodes for RAC servers: primary01 and primary02.
  • One NAS for shared storage.
  • One DNS for resolving hostname, especially for SCAN name.
  • Please note that, you can only have one DNS server in NIC configuration.

  • Two network cards, one is for public subnet, another is for private subnet.
    • Public subnet (192.168.10.0/24): only for public connection. Later, all virtual IP like SCAN and VIP will dynamically bind with this NIC after running CRS.
    • Private subnet (192.168.24.0/24): for both private and ASM connections. This NIC is mainly for node interconnection, not for outside access.

Same hosts configuration must also appear in primary02 according to our design.

Security Configuration

We stopped firewall and selinux on both nodes to make RAC installation more smoothly.

[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl stop firewalld
[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl disable firewalld
[root@primary01 ~]# vi /etc/selinux/config
...
SELINUX=disabled

If you couldn't or wouldn't disable firewall, then you may also open port 1521 on Linux for your listener.

NTP Server

Please make sure NTP is working well on both nodes. Here we use the default NTP service chronyd to play the role.

[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl status chronyd

Connect to Shared Storage

In our design, we use a NAS which provides iSCSI sharing service. Our database servers play as iSCSI clients, so we need to install iSCSI initiator package. For Solaris database servers, you may check: How to Configure iSCSI Disk on Solaris.

As I mentioned earlier, I assume that you have already prepared a shared storage for database servers to connect. You may find a tutorial here: How to Build 12c RAC (1/6) - Building a NAS for Shared Storage of RAC.

First of all, we have to install iSCSI initiator on both nodes.

Complete!

Then enable and start iSCSI services on both nodes.

[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl enable iscsid
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/iscsid.service to /usr/lib/systemd/system/iscsid.service.
[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl enable iscsi
[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl start iscsid
[root@primary01 ~]# systemctl start iscsi

Now, we discover all targets from NAS on both nodes. In this case, we prepared 8 iSCSI entents, 16 GB each to associate targets in NAS.

[root@primary01 ~]# iscsiadm -m discovery -t sendtargets -p nas
192.168.10.101:3260,2 iqn.2005-10.org.freenas.ctl:asm-t1

Then we have to partition all the 8 shared disks only on one node. Usually, node 1 is our first choice. The procedures to partition a disk are all the same. So we take /dev/sdb for an example here.

[root@primary01 ~]# fdisk /dev/sdb
Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.23.2).

Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

...

On the other node, node 2, we have to refresh the partition table to get the newest disk information.

[root@primary02 ~]# partprobe -s
/dev/sda: msdos partitions 1 2
/dev/sdb: msdos partitions 1
/dev/sdc: msdos partitions 1
...

Oracle Preinstall Package

Oracle preinstall package can ease our task on installation. For example, installing required packages and create required users and groups.

On both nodes.

Create required Directories

On both nodes.

[root@primary01 ~]# mkdir -p /u01/app/18.0.0/grid
[root@primary01 ~]# mkdir -p /u01/app/grid
[root@primary01 ~]# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/18.0.0/db_1

[root@primary01 ~]# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app/oracle
[root@primary01 ~]# chmod -R 775 /u01/

Set Profiles for grid and oracle

First, we set profiles for user grid on both nodes.

[root@primary01 ~]# su - grid
[grid@primary01 ~]$ vi .bash_profile
...
umask 022
ORACLE_SID=+ASM1
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/grid
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/18.0.0/grid
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
TMP=/tmp
TMPDIR=/tmp
PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin:$HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export PATH ORACLE_SID ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH TMP TMPDIR
[grid@primary01 ~]$ exit
logout

Now turn to user oracle on both nodes.

[root@primary01 ~]# su - oracle
[oracle@primary01 ~]$ vi .bash_profile
...
umask 022
ORACLE_SID=PRIMDB1
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/18.0.0/db_1
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib

Upload and Unzip Oracle Software

This step is only on node 1. Starting with Oracle Grid Infrastructure 12c Release 2 (12.2), installation and configuration of Oracle Grid Infrastructure software is simplified with image-based installation. That is to say, we have to upload and extract the source file in grid's ORACLE_HOME.

Please note that, you don't have to upload zip files to all nodes, only the first node requires those files.

Configure Oracle ASMLib

On both nodes.

[root@primary01 ~]# oracleasm configure -i
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver.

This will configure the on-boot properties of the Oracle ASM library
driver.  The following questions will determine whether the driver is
loaded on boot and what permissions it will have.  The current values
will be shown in brackets ('[]').  Hitting <ENTER> without typing an
answer will keep that current value.  Ctrl-C will abort.

Default user to own the driver interface []: grid
Default group to own the driver interface []: asmadmin

This can make system discover all available ASM Disks on boot-time.

    1. Oracle documents two advantages about ASMFD.

      Oracle ASMFD simplifies the configuration and management of disk devices by eliminating the need to rebind disk devices used with Oracle ASM each time the system is restarted.

      Oracle ASM Filter Driver rejects any I/O requests that are invalid. This action eliminates accidental overwrites of Oracle ASM disks that would cause corruption in the disks and files within the disk group. For example, the Oracle ASM Filter Driver filters out all non-Oracle I/Os which could cause accidental overwrites.

      As for me, I choose ASMLib over ASMFD simply because I’m used to use it.
